How can I speed up the post table?
Posts Table Pro is built to stay fast, even on large tables. It uses an indexed engine that pre-computes the data your tables need. The rest of the page loads before the table starts loading, so visitors start seeing your content more quickly.
Caching
For an extra speed boost, you can enable the Caching option. This stores the contents of your tables so that they load even more quickly on repeat visits.
Other tips for improving performance
If you'd like to improve the performance and page load times further, we recommend the following:
- Reduce the amount of data displayed in your table, particularly images or embedded audio/video. Reducing the number of columns can also help.
- Read our tips on how to make sure your site isn't loading bigger images than necessary in the
imagecolumn. - Test the page load time with and without the table plugin active. (Pingdom is our favourite speed testing tool because it tells you the actual page load time from different servers around the world.) This will help to establish whether the performance issues are caused by the table plugin or something else.
- If the Pingdom speed test is showing a high 'time to first byte' (i.e. the amount of time your website is taking to connect before the page starts to load), it's worth switching to a better host. We use Kinsta which offers fully optimised WordPress hosting that is built for performance. It comes with built-in features such as caching to speed up your site.
